Sauce for Prime Rib - Need Help.

SPN

I've cooked a couple prime rib roasts over the last couple of years and both have turned out great.  Question about the sauce........

The first one I cooked, I also had a white sauce but can't seem to remember what was in it or find the recipe.  Anyone have any suggestions of what sauce to serve with the prime rib?  Looking at doing a couple of them over the next couple of weeks.

Thanks

Prob. a creamy horseradish sauce.  Several receipes on the intranet, or you can buy already prepared.

Here's a great recipe for a mild horse radish sauce. This is also good on baked potatoes, asparagus and as a spread on sandwiches.

1-1/2 cups good mayo, 3 Tbs Dijon mustard, 1-1/2 Tbs Whole grain mustard, 1 Tbs prepared horse radish, 1/3 cup sour cream, and 1/4 tsp kosher salt. Mix it all together and enjoy. If you try this, I'll bet some of your guests will be asking for the recipe.

I like the taste of gorgonzola cheese on grilled beef.  I made a white cream gorgonzola sauce this week for some flat irons that I cooked and it was terrific.

Add about 2 tbs unsalted butter to a saucepan over medium heat and melt

Saute 2 cloves of freshly minced garlic - when you start to smell the garlic then go to the next step and whatever you do, don't burn the garlic

Optional - add 1/2 cup of white wine at this point and reduce it over a medium to medium low flame.  I didn't have any white wine Sunday night but it worked out fine.

lower the fire to medium low and slowly start stirring in a cup or a cup and 1/2 of heavy cream or 1/2 and 1/2.  Stir and reduce this until it starts to thicken.

Add crumbled gorgonzola cheese until it reaches the flavor that you want.  Gorgonzola has a pretty strong blue cheese flavor that some people may find too pungent if used in excess.  I love it so I like mine on the stronger side.

Add salt and pepper to taste.
